Some chap called Eric Noah has a website all about the new D&D 3E!
http://www.enworld.org/ericnoah/
So this is a Blast from the Past. With the help of Eric, I'm reconstructing much of his old website, Eric Noah's Unofficial D&D 3rd Edition News. I'm sure many who were around at the time will agree that its place in D&D history is an important one. I intend to preserve the site as a museum piece - a nostalgic look at things in 1999/2000. Just reading that site, I'm sure you'll be able to spot many ways in which the community and environment have changed in the last 13-14 years.
Eric's site was important to me. I didn't visit many websites back then. Hell, I had a dial-up modem, and Eric updated his site by making web pages in HTML and uploading them via an FTP program, like it was totally 1999 or something. Not only that, as many of you are aware, EN World is the evolution of Eric's site and the wonderful community he built around it. The day he closed the site was a sad one, and I feel honoured to be continuing that work - though not nearly so well - all these years later.
Thank you, Eric, for the best D&D website that ever existed. There have been thousands upon thousands of unofficial D&D sites, blogs, and social networking groups since then, but yours, to me, was undeniably the Big Daddy of them all.
